PatB Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Came across this trainset in Birminghan today... XC1.jpg Cheers, Mick I like the use of a mirror to create the illusion of longer platforms. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Phil Bullock Posted July 28, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 28, 2016 Surely its a basic rule that you don't put an unweathered loco straight on the layout? This just looks so fresh out of the box! Just putting a blob of gunmetal on those pristine buffers fools no-one! Phil 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Kazmierczak Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 The placing of these Preiser figures on the platform just looks too contrived to me. And that row of houses behind is much too close to the railway..... The Cl.450 dosen't look too bad though. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pH Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I can't say why, but when I look at this picture, I think 'large scale garden layout': http://www.railpictures.net/photo/583834/ 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swindon 123 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 This "model" of a small branchline terminus has a superb backscene, although houses a rather eclectic mix of stock and era's. IMG_2738 by Paul James, on Flickr Paul J. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Argos Posted August 20, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 20, 2016 I came across this link from a blog I follow which I thought relevant for this topic. http://thphotos.com/#/172947/ These are all real images that are manipulated to look like models, apologies, only a few are railway. I am sure there are some lessons here about reversing the process to make our models look more real. I just have to work them out! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pH Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Someone's been in a hurry to get trains running on their garden railway. A major rework and tidy up is going to be needed. http://www.railpictures.net/photo/587066 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BR(S) Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Overall a good modelling job, but that cliched backscene gives it away: http://fewsfots.jalbum.net/THE%20SPOTTING%20YEARS/1986/45146.JPG From: http://jalbum.net/en/browse/user/album/992719;jsessionid=15bqbuvspbh8b1rajrmtn47bdh 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
